Have you set the path to your Blender installation in the editor settings?

Win 10

I was a little unsure because you have forward slashes in the executable path, but perhaps Godot displays all paths in Unix style

So what deos that mean because my potato brain cant process that

It's just that Windows traditionally uses \ as a folder separator, so when you see / it usually means the person is on Linux/Mac. I think Windows supports both nowadays, and even if it doesn't, Godot probably handles everything internally so it should turn out right.

Might be worth reporting an issue for that, I couldn't find an existing one. https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues?q=is%3Aissue blender path label%3Aplatform%3Awindows
I.e. that it gives you a Unix path when using the Browse button, which it then claims to be invalid. This definitely sounds like a bug.
For the problem that it still doesn't work even if you flip the slashes, it would help to know exactly what it says the error is.

Ok
